Okay, I’m about to give up one of my biggest shopping secrets: La Redoute (laredoute.com). It’s sort of like the French H&M, and they have an amazing online selection. The clothes are completely affordable, there are designer lines (Vanessa Bruno, anyone?) and you can always find a signature piece there.

Below, a few favorites:

1. This LaCroix Falbala TrenchOkay, more expensive than most things on the site, but on sale and completely adorable—and it comes in red too!

2. This Merino Wool ShrugI have this in three colors, and I live in it for three seasons of the year. Perfect over a spring tee, a summer dress or a fall blouse. So chic.

3. This Unité Deep V DressI'm a little obsessed with long-sleeved dresses, and this one is going to be perfect with a double-leather belt (see below).

4. This Double-Leather BeltOur extremely stylish Swiss art director at ELLEgirl used to wear layered belts, and I completely snagged that look.

I hope you enjoy my style secret. Now, please share one of your own! I am always looking for new ideas.

Oh god, I have NO style secrets. Probably because my style isn't all that great...I'm trying to find some new clothes for this fall though...i'm not one for clothes shopping (good prices, looks nice..and FITS? all hard stuff!)

Thanks for the tips though. Some of that stuff is sooo adorable. :)

I am so loving the LaCroix Falbala Trench! If only I could afford it. ;) Wow, but I loved all of your picks- you have great taste! Lol, I too am style secret deprived. Hmmmm... (this is hair related rather than clothes related, is that okay?) I guess I'd have to say hairbands are a lifesaver if you're having a bad hair day! I have heap of other tips if you have unruly, curly hair like me!

Loved this blog!Pretty/beautiful clothes are so great! I miss American stores here in Israel... :(I always go online and look at Old Navy and AE but it would cost me more money to get the stuff shipped than if I just buy something here...

I don't really have style secrets... but I do LOVE my AE jeans... they are AMAZING, COMFORTABLE, and CUTE!

About Me

I'm currently 23 years old. I am in the last semester of my college degree, and will graduate on December 10, 2016 with a Bachelor in Science degree in Secondary Education with a double major in Mathematics and History. Upon graduation, I will be able to teach 6-12 grade mathematics in Michigan, and will (hopefully) have a teaching job come the 2017-2018 school year.
I am engaged to a wonderful man who supports me becoming a teacher - and the time that I have to commit to my job for me to feel successful. If I am not working on stuff for school, then I am talking about the stuff that I want to work on for school! We will be getting married on May 20, 2017.
Outside of teaching, I enjoy reading, crocheting, and knitting. I am also known to binge watch a ton of shows on Netflix.
